The series is over. India have been white-washed by the English team convincingly, 4-0 being the verdict. There was no doubt who was the stronger team and the No.1 ranking at the end of the series was apt for the winners.The jury is out. Ex...(more)

Ishant doesn’t just have to look like a fast bowler to bowl like one. Beyond the flying hair and the Emirate on his chin, for me, it’s the Baba like calm in those eyes that sort him out. What we see when he bats to save the world. But ...(more)
